MINUTES TO GULF BEACHES AND IMG!! 2Bed/2Bath with HEATED POOL!!!
You'll love this charming two bedroom, two bath home nestled on the banks of a small, serene lake in the heart of west Bradenton! Just minutes from shopping, restaurants, and the beaches of Anna Maria Island, this quiet neighborhood feels like it's miles away from the hub-bub. If you like to pop outside for a bit of exercise, it's the perfect place for exploring on foot or by bike.
Your home away from home features fresh, charming decor, with a comfortable dining and living area, and a ...fully equipped kitchen, all overlooking the screened pool and the lake beyond. The large smart TV is the perfect place for watching a game or streaming your favorite shows. And after a meal, doing the dishes isn't a chore when you can watch the local birds and wildlife as they enjoy the lakeside setting.
The two bedrooms flank the living room. The primary bedroom features a king-size bed, ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, large walk-in closet, and another smart TV. The second bedroom, located on the other side of the house, features two twin beds, a smart TV. The second bathroom, with its tub/shower combination, is just a couple of steps away in the hallway.
Of course, you'll want to spend much of your time enjoying the large screened patio and heated pool. Overlooking the lake, it features a dining table and chairs for those times when you feel like taking your meals outside, chaises for soaking up the sun, and comfortable armchairs for relaxing with a book or magazine. You'll also find a gas grill on the patio, ready to cook anything from the best hot dogs in the sun to a delicious ribs for dinner.
Small dog owners will be delighted to discover the fully fenced-in back yard, a lovely spot for your canine companion to romp while you enjoy a day along the glorious beaches of Anna Maria Island, less than five miles away. You'll love exploring the miles of sugar-white sand and sparkling waters, where recreational opportunities abound. Hop on the island's free trolley to explore it top to bottom, from the village of Anna Maria at the north, through the shops and restaurants of Holmes Beach in the middle of the island, and south to Bradenton Beach, where the smallest slip of land separates the Bay from the Gulf.
A short dive to Manatee County's GT Bray Park, where you can find things like disc golf, orienteering, and other cool outdoor activities. For more information, check out the Manatee County website.
Just 20 minutes from the Sarasota/Bradenton Airport, and only 10 minutes, from the world-famous IMG Academy, this beautiful home sleeps 4 in one king and two twins.

Wonderful home with private pool in nice quiet neighborhood.
Beautiful home, just the right size for a family with one or two kids. Quiet cul-de-sac and easy access to the beach and more. Private screened-in pool is clean and perfect sized. Nice fenced-in yard for kids or pets. Full kitchen makes it easy to make meals at home. We spent all week just lazing around while our daughter was at nearby IMG Academy.

The house was very clean and the pool was the highlight. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay and plan on staying there next year. The house was just as listed on the site. I also liked how it was so close to stores and restaurants. The place was a super hit for us.

Beachy Dreams is one of the best homes we've stayed in on our many trips to Florida. It is comfortably furnished and well equipped generally. It's location is ideal for the beaches .
We stayed when hurricane Milton came through,so no beaches open and restaurants closed. Even so we felt safe in the property.
We would highly recommend it for a Florida holiday.

This property is beautiful so thoughtfully appointed, beautifully themed decor- it submerged us in our perfect vacation getaway. Easy, breezy and amazing 🤩 We had a problem with the e-lock (1000% our fault) and used the text number to report the issue and someone was there within 15 minutes to fix it for us. Every amenity we would possibly need was provided and I’ve never been so relaxed on a family vacation!!! This place is a 10/10 and I would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the area. Anna Maria Island is 4 miles away and was so convenient to just hop in our truck and go whenever and wherever we wanted!! Will definitely be back thank you to the property owner/ hosts for sharing your slice of heaven with our family. Our memories there will last us a lifetime. The Lofgren-Shippee family

Perfect for our needs as a relaxing vacation and as a meeting place for some old friends and family. It was beautiful, clean and uncluttered. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed. We used the boogie boards and beach chairs on our beach days. We enjoyed the gorgeous pool day and night. Please stay in this terrific home located in a convenient, quiet cul-de-sac neighborhood. We ate breakfast and dinner at the house and were only minutes from delicious Florida seafood lunches at the Swordfish Grill, The Star Fish Co., Tide Tables Restaurant, The Old Salty Dog and The Anna Maria Oyster Bar, etc. We had engagements in Sarasota with friends, went to see the Bradenton Marauders, a minor league baseball team, and drove to Ybor City in Tampa for a concert. This home is reasonably priced and so convenient for many vacation activities. We also enjoyed watching the birds on the lake. Thank you -- perfectly relaxing spot!

I could sit here for hours and tell you every wonderful thing about this property, its amenities and its location but who has that kinda time, right?
The house was IMMACULATE- this coming from a clean freak- zero dust, zero grime, just an absolutely- picture perfect property.
The house has everything you need and then some. The kitchen is completly stocked with everything you could possibly need to cook a quick meal or a 5 course dinner! Tupperware, tinfoil, mixing bowls, you name it, it's there!
The pool- ohhhhh the pool, the entire reason I rented this property. It was prestine! My husband barked at me for needing a pool yet somehow, his behind was in it more than I was!! It's heated to the perfect temp for those cool night swims and there is a bin of all kinds of floats and pool toys for your chosing.
The pond behind the house was something i didnt know i needed. Theyre not lying when they say tons of wildlife visit this pond. You're going to be surprised everytime you look outside that beautiful kitchen window. Also, they have bonoculars and a bird book on the coffee table and you bet we used them!! So handy.
The location is perfect!! Right off the main road and 10 minutes from the most beautiful beach I ever stepped foot on.
The garage was stocked with tons of beach equipment, coolers, chairs, carts, toys - absolutely amazing!!
I could go on for hours!! If you're thinking of renting this property I say -WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!!
I will be back!! SOON!!!
